Mercedes AMG F1 Team 2012

How much they compromised set-up race race towards a wet race?

From what I saw in FP3 Michael would go for that ... or maybe he just went to hard tyres and Nico to medium ones?

On Topic: Great to see britney topping the times in FP3. Qualifying too close to call. I'm hoping for msc to outqualify nico again.

EDIT: and he didnt disappoint me =D>

Both the drivers were on the options according to the live timing app. Fuel loads may have been different, as would have been the setups. Rain is always a probability here so you never know

This is such an emotional moment as a Michael fan. Obviously qualifying means nothing & you get no points for it but Michael was destroyed in qualifying race after race for 2 years & now he is driving the wheels of that car to put it to P3 just 1 & a 1/2 tenths behind the Mclarens.

Mercedes must work to improve the car. On pure pace the car is more than half a second down,the W duct is saving them. Soon other teams will copy it. Hope Mercedes will debut a modified exhaust soon. Hope Michael will be able to challenge for podiums & hopefully wins.

Oops, i see a new topic coming up

Embarrassment for Britney? The Reborn Schumacher...

Qualifying duel in 2011 was 16:3 for rosberg, now its already 2:0 for schumacher...
Michael and the w03... looks good to me

[marcush.]

so it really looks like Schumacher has found something he seemed to have lost for considerable time.2:0 in terms of absolute speed -Qualy counts was the tenor here and Schumacher is definietely a lost cause and he was not that good anyways to start with ...
No comments from those who said he should retire asap?
I think Stewart ,Herbert ,Coulthard,Moss etc should eat their words now.Or Mercedes deliberately put preference on Michael playing the PR card but throwing away a championship?

I think its a combination of the loss of EBD that now suits his driving style and an improved car that's brought out the fighter in him. Nico's made 2 mistakes in 2 qualifying sessions...Michael's gonna be a tough nut to crack for him this year. And of course, he ll make the detractors eat their words

[marcush.]

Huu.. I hope you did not wager on a big gap in favour of MCL JET? ...i´m sure it is a bit of a relief that it was Miochael who did not allow the bucks rolling in your pocket...

Hi guys I follow this forum for quite a while now.

Yesterday I was lucky enough to be in the Mercedes Garage for FP1 and was not allowed to take any pics. They actually have someone around you all the time so that you cant sneak a pic. The same guy was telling me that a few top teams are not happy with there new design as we know and that he believed that Red Bull and Mclaren are running a very questionable exhaust configurations and are trying to shift the focus to Mercedes. Must say that Michael was one of the last drivers to leave the cicuit which shows his commitment to the success of the team.

Hope tomorrow goes to plan.

Schumacher is on fire!
If you saw the FP1 and that guy is driving around like he is still 25 years old. He is pushing the car to the limit. It is wonderfull to see!

LOL EDIT
